There is one clinical trial.
Brief Summary: SARS-CoV-2 virus infection is known to cause Lung Injury that begins as dyspnea and exercise intolerance, but may rapidly progress to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and the need for mechanical ventilation. Mortality rates as high as 80% have been reported among those who develop ARDS, despite intensive care and mechanical ventilation. Patients with COVID-19 induced non-Acute Lung Injury who have demonstrated reduction in blood oxygenation, dyspnea, and exercise intolerance but do not require endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation will be treated with Aviptadil, a synthetic version of Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide (VIP) plus Standard of Care vs. placebo + Standard of Care. Patients will be randomized to intravenous Aviptadil will receive inhaled Aviptadil, 100 μg 3x daily vs. placebo 3x daily. The primary outcome will be progression to ARDS over 28 days. Secondary outcomes will include blood oxygenation as measured by pulse oximetry, dyspnea, exercise tolerance, and levels of TNFα IL-6 and other cytokines.
Description: Progression to ARDS is defined as the need for mechanical ventilation
Measure: Progression to ARDS Time: 28 daysDescription: Blood PO2 as measured by pulse oximetry
Measure: Blood oxygenation Time: 28 daysDescription: 0 = no shortness of breath at all 0.5 = very, very slight shortness of breath = very mild shortness of breath = mild shortness of breath = moderate shortness of breath or breathing difficulty = somewhat severe shortness of breath = strong or hard breathing 7 = severe shortness of breath or very hard breathing 8 9 = extremely severe shortness of breath 10 = shortness of breath so severe you need to stop the exercise or activity
Measure: RDP Dsypnea Scale Time: 28 daysDescription: Distance walked in six minutes
Measure: Distance walked in six minutes Time: 28 days
